Then then piano and voice saying, 'Number nine. 'And you knew all about it, George, I'm sorry.' Henry from Grand Rapids, MiWhen 'Cry Baby Cry' ends, 'Revolution 9' begins with Paul singing 'Can you take me back where I came from can you take me back.' Then the voices saying, 'Then we can tell them Paul's got to be alive.'.Any authorities on cockney rhyming slang out there? (I had a dream that I met Lennon, and he told me to ask everyone to stop bugging him in the afterlife.) Sorry to be so stroppy.just frustrated trying to pin down something resembling reliable information.

My EDUCATED guess is that it's some kind of rhyming slang. I'm trying to settle the 'bird & bee' question. Dudley from Belfast, BoliviaDoes anybody have a solid fact or two? I have a fanny of my own to pull guesses out of.I guess you have to copy and paste links that are posted here. So it looks like Ed from Deal, England is right. Patti from MichiganDudley - According to this link, the 'bird and bee' is a pub, just like I was told a long time ago.9, which was made up of many random tapes and loops. It is merely studio chatter that was caught on tape in between takes, and which made it on to Rev. Rather, Alistair apologising for not having brought a bottle of claret. It has nothing to do with the Paul McCartney or John Lennon or any other conspiracies. Zimmer from AustraliaTo those wondering and speculating about the conversation after Paul's 'can you take me back' - which is not actually at the end of Cry Baby Cry, but the start of Revolution 9 - it is George Martin speaking to Alistair Taylor (one of the Beatles assistants) in the control room.

I read elsewhere Paul is talking about the time of fairy tales. I can't see why it would be the start of Revolution 9 as he disliked Revolution 9 and didn't want it included in the album. The analogues band include it when they sing this song. Paul decided it would sound better after Cry baby Cry. But one thing is certain : the take me back was recorded during the I will sections.

Virginia Abreu De Paula from BrazilSo many speculation.Mine is speculation too as it is not possible to know what was on their minds.

Not a part of 'Cry Baby Cry' ģ- The Conversation Between George Martin and Allistair Taylor, made by John and Included as a SNIPPET before 'Revolution #9'

Vitor Jr from BrazilWe are four scenarios in here, as follows:Ģ- 'Can you take me Back', was a SNIPPET that Paul inserted in the very ending of 'Cry Baby Cry', this was a jam recorded during 'I Will' sessions, just a joke, practically.

He was also fairly typical of someone who had been into heroin in a big way ~ blame everyone for everything unless it makes you look good and noble to take responsibility.Īnyway, all that aside, it's one of my favourite Beatle songs and if John was ashamed to admit he wrote it after being savage to Paul for writing 'Honey Pie' and 'Obladi, Oblada,' that was his affair ! I'm not embarrassed to have loved the song for 45 years. He sometimes remembered things with great clarity but also ascribed wrong incidents to things he remembered. John was fairly typical of someone with an acid-wrecked memory. Now, of course, we know that he did write it because 12 years previously, he was telling biographer Hunter Davies about it as he was writing it and it ended up in Davies' 1968 biography of the band. In his Playboy interview in 1980, just before he died, John actually denied writing 'Cry baby cry' and called it a piece of rubbish. Hardly anyone tells us where they got their facts from.

Grimtraveller from North West LondonI marvel at the comments parading as #fact# here.

I think somehow would match perfectly with the not-so-good happy ending of the Royal Family.

Victor from São PauloThis song could easily be played in the season finale of The Crown (S6).
